Would they take a bullet for her?
“Good morning, ma’am,” a member of the uniformed Secret Service once politely greeted Hillary Clinton.
“F— off,” she replied to the man sworn to defend her life with his own.
That exchange is one among many eye opening accounts that active and retired Secret Service agents shared with Ronald Kessler, author of “First Family Detail,” a compelling book that takes a look at the intrepid personnel who shield America’s presidents and their families from madmen and assassins.
Kessler writes flatteringly and critically about people in both parties. But it’s his scathing stories regarding the Clintons that raises eyebrows.
“When in public, Hillary smiles and acts graciously,” Kessler explains. “As soon as the cameras are gone, her angry personality, nastiness, and imperiousness become evident.”
He adds: “Hillary Clinton can make Richard Nixon look like Mahatma Gandhi.”
Kessler was once an investigative reporter with the Wall Street Journal and Washington Post and is an accomplished author of many bestsellers. Among the salacious stories told in “First Family Detail,” he reports:
“Hillary was very rude to agents, and she didn’t appear to like law enforcement or the military,” former Secret Service agent Lloyd Bulman recalls. “She wouldn’t go over and meet military people or police officers, as most protectees do. She was just really rude to almost everybody. She’d act like she didn’t want you around, like you were beneath her.”
“Hillary didn’t like the military aides wearing their uniforms around the White House,” one former agent remembers. “She asked if they would wear business suits instead. The uniform’s a sign of pride, and they’re proud to wear their uniform. I know that the military was actually really offended by it.”
She apparently loved to do some backseat driving when riding in the presidential motorcade as well:
Former agent Jeff Crane says, “Hillary would cuss at Secret Service drivers for going over bumps.” Another former member of her detail recollects, “Hillary never talked to us . . . Most all members of first families would talk to us and smile. She never did that.”
“We spent years with her,” yet another Secret Service agent notes. “She never said thank you.”
One former Secret Service agent states, “If Hillary was walking down a hall, you were supposed to hide behind drapes used as partitions.”
Hillary one day ran into a White House electrician who was changing a light bulb in the upstairs family quarters. She screamed at him, because she had demanded that all repairs be performed while the Clintons were outside the Executive Mansion.
While running for US Senate, Hillary stopped at an upstate New York 4-H Club. As one Secret Service agent says, Hillary saw farmers and cows and then erupted. “She turned to a staffer and said, ‘What the f - - - did we come here for? There’s no money here.’ ”
Secret Service “agents consider being assigned to her detail a form of punishment,” Kessler concludes. “In fact, agents say being on Hillary Clinton’s detail is the worst duty assignment in the Secret Service.”
Kessler summed up his take away about Hillary from the Secret Service, “No one would hire such a person to work at a McDonald’s, and yet she is being considered for president of the United States.”
So needless to say, the Secret Service appears to be rooting for Donald Trump…
